Sako recoil lug bedding If, and ONLY if, the front action screw threads through the bottom of the recoil lug(as on previous Sako models)........the lug bottom would also need to be bedded. Not doing so would cause action flex, as the front action screw is tightened. Hope this helps. Kevin

Pierced primer pic...... Click on my previous post pic........to see......VERY small hole. Kevin Is this any better?

Gents.......... Didn't Jerry Stiller write an in-depth "Blanking" article in Precision Shooting, some years ago? Kevin

Hey Butch......... This pic, from a few years ago, may be of some interest. Yes......the primer did not blank.....it pierced. The 40XBR 17 Javelina had it's bolt bushed by Greg Tannel, and FP turned to 0.060" with a 0.045" protrusion. The old Wolff 32lb. spring had been left in........putting...

Sweet Al!!!!!!! The Quadrajet brings back memories of my first car.....a '68 GTO. I re-jetted that carb sooooooo many times.........sigh!! Kevin

Leica Vector IV If you're interested in one like this.....pm me. Kevin

Here's a pic of mine....all original. It's a HV 40XBBR 222, with factory 2 oz. trigger, and Leupold 24XAO. Kevin

I have two of the Sako PPC rifles. The 22PPC-BR rifle, with target trigger, is very good on PD's......shooting the 40BT at 3900 fps. The second rifle, a Lightweight Hunter 6PPC.....I re-barrelled. It's now a 17PPC.....and is a great calling rifle. Pic below. Note that the factory rifle is a...

Gents........you might want to google "Harrold ISD" about selectively armed personnel. Here, in North Texas, Harrold has been "armed" since about 2007......without incident. A good plan put to good use. Merry Christmas......you too, Al N. Kevin

I used a cordless drill set-up for many years.....until I built the set-up below. NO comparison. I also measure the neckwall thickness runout for each turned case....well below a "tenth" TIR. Using carbide turning mandrels is nice. Kevin

Like Al said......pencil soldering iron(Harbor Freight.....cheap). 2 minutes....easy peeeesy. Kevin

With much help from "Francis & Co."......I built my latest set-up. No more batteries!! Kevin

How The West Was Won, Never So Few, The Sand Pebbles, Bullitt... Kevin

Say Butch !!!......... Your rain gauge would work well, up here.......if it were INVERTED!!!!!! It was 106 degrees here today.........at 9 o'clock........at NIGHT!!!!!! Kevin

You guys need to visit up here............where it's a little "warm". Kevin

Tom, You are to be congratulated.......well done!! Back in the late 80's I took up road biking, with lap swimming, as cross-training......due to a racquetball injury. My favorite bike was a Trek 1500 with DH bars......put many a mile on it. Did the Hotter'N Hell Hundred.....twice...

Speaking of "negative flipping".....anyone ever notice the dvd front box cover of "The War Wagon"?? And I had always thought John and Kirk were right handed........ Kevin

How about "Never So Few"? A war movie....yes....but with plenty of firearms, movie stars from a time gone by.......and, of course....Gina L.( Liz Taylor only wished she was as beautiful.....IMHO). One of my favorite movies. BTW.....there's "Joe Kidd", with Eastwood and Duvall. Kevin

Fortunately........."your" butt is wearing swirls, and not stripes. BTW, Al....that's a nice rifle......your scope is wearing. Kevin

Probably not much help......but I've had good results with VV-N550 with the Berger 50LTB, in my 20BR. Although the barrel has a 10.0" twist, I may try the new 55's. Works great on PD's though. Kevin
